My ambassador replied saying that "platinum benefits are not transferable to guests" - does this mean my SNAs and early check-in / late check-out will not apply to them? If so, this will be very frustrating to manage...
Technically your benefits are for you and not transferrable, it's up to the property whether they will extend your benefits, and YMMV.
